Pony update

It's good news about the pony - the RSPCA were there this morning to try & catch him & take him to safety.
I spoke to one of their inspectors on the phone yesterday, & he had been going up daily to give him food & water (there have been buckets for him this week). Presumably they had to wait until they had the resources or whatever to come & get him.

They think he'd just been dumped in the field - possibly by someone who couldn't afford to keep him anymore. Grrrr - that makes me so angry as you can hand an animal over to a rescue without having to resort to this kind of abandonment.

Anyway - as long as he'll allow himself to be caught - he should be on his way to a happier home right now. ♥

I'm so relieved! :-)

The [livejournal.com profile] sga_art_santa deadline is approaching, & my piece is nowhere ready yet. :-(
I think I'm experiencing creative burnout with all the advent stuff! (24 pieces in such a short space of time is quite a lot! Even though I did start preparing stuff a couple of weeks in advance, whilst trying to write my SGA Santa fic too! *g*)
I can't let my recipient down though & so I'm getting back to it. :-)

Bud is being super supportive by looking adorable sleeping on his office bed by the side of my desk. *g*

Hey lovely! Long time, no speak. Missed the saga of the horse but I'm so glad he's going to be okay and I am glad Bud is well too.

There will be a Christmas card wending its way to you but I suspect it wont get there till AFTER Christmas *g*

*hugs*

I'm just so glad the RSPCA have got him now we're having all this freezing weather!

*Buddy hugs*

That's good news about the horse! :-)

Aww about your trying to finish the SGA art for sga_art_santa :(

I haven't even started on my secret santa piece for SGU - ughh...AND I think I'm coming down with the flu! Yikes!

But your daily SAG Advent cheers me up, so that's a good thing! ~grins~

I've finally managed to finish my art!
\o/
I do hope you're feeling better!
*hugs*

I'm so happy the horse will be taken to safety. :))

You amaze me at the amount of wonderful fannish goodness you've been turning out lately. I haven't had time to read and enjoy it all. I hope to go back through your journal soon and do just that. Just popped in to say that seeing the cute and colourful McShepguin icons are so cheery and welcome every day. ♥

Good luck with the latest project!

Aw, thank you!
It's been so much fun (though I do feel rather drained creatively now! *g*)
Thankfully the SGA Art Santa piece is finished now & so all my outstanding stuff for Christmas is done! :-)

I'm glad there's a happy ending for the pony. I can't even believe someone could just abandon the poor thing.

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 10:16 am (UTC)(link)
I know - it's terrible to do that when there are sanctuaries who would help.
Thankfully he has a happy ending now. :-)

That horse has been on my mind ever since you mentioned it...at least it will be cared for now!

Bloody people make me so mad....even though it's a living creature their lack of feeling towards them just beggars belief *grumbles* It's a good thing there are folk like you who care *hugs*

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 10:18 am (UTC)(link)
I know!
I was so worried about him & am just so relieved that the RSPCA have picked him up.
I spoke to the inspector & he said the pony would be checked out by their vets & then they'd find a place for him.

*hugs*

Yay! I am so happy and relieved about the pony!!!

*squishes you* Awww! Buddy is so wonderful!!! *cuddles and kisses him*

*loves and smooshes*

Yes, especially as we're having some really bad weather with below freezing temps. Brrr.
Thankfully the pony is now safe & warm. ♥

I'm so happy to hear about the horse and that he's going to be taken care of. Its wonderful that there are people like you out there that care enough to call.

Your advent work is fabulous and I look forward to my daily dose.

Good luck with your artwork!!

Oh, thank you - I'm so glad you're enjoying the advent fun.
It's been a lot of work, but I've enjoyed it! *g*

The SGA Art Santa piece is done!
Huzzah!
\o/

I'm so relieved to hear that the pony is getting rescued! You are so kind and caring for being concerned.

The Advent goodies are such a great idea, I've loved the short fics you've written. But, I have to ask, why John and Rodney Penguins? I don't get the significance of that.

Can't wait to read your SGA Santa fic!! Give Bud a cookie---he's adorable!

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 10:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hee! Glad you're enjoying it all.
I think that it's just one of those fannish things. :-) There have been stories written by quite a few authors with the boys being turned into penguins, or cats or whatever! LOL I just thought it would be fun to draw them too. *g*

My SGA Santa fic may (or may not *g*) have been posted over at the comm - they're anonymous until Jan 1st. *g*
I've finished my art piece for the SGA Art Santa & they will be posted from 26th Dec! \o/

I'll be glad when they catch the poor thing and give him a good home. Lazy people could have just brought him to them in the first place to give him up instead of letting him go like that! I wish people would think about someone besides themselves. Animals have feelings too!

Hope you can get everything done hon!

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree totally.

All done at last! :-)

Oh, by the way, your Atlantis fic link is broken?

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, thanks - I'll get it fixed. :-)

Yay on the horse being rescued. That's really strange someone abandoning him like that :(

[identity profile] bluespirit-star.livejournal.com 2009-12-22 02:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I know - I don't know why they couldn't just take him to a sanctuary. He was such a sweet little thing too. ♥
